If you think Eight Belles had sneaky 2yo form - I can only say I strongly disagree. I watched those races and studied the charts of surrounding races. She was mediocre in those races.

As for her 6th race, she ran 20 points faster (11.5 lengths better) than a colt who finished 2nd in a Graded Stake next out.

Then again... she proved on track how superior she is to every colt in this crop, save one.

I don't know if she had sneaky 2YO form or not. I do know she ran 5 very good, not spectacular, races in a row... regardless of what happened prior to that.

I'm glad that's not what you're shooting at, thanks for refuting.
